Huffington Post: Eric Cantor Refuses To Discuss Possible Anti-Semitism Among GOP Colleagues

Posted: 19 Apr 2012 10:58 AM PDT

WASHINGTON -- House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) on Thursday defended his decision to give money to an anti-incumbent super PAC to help defeat one of his colleagues but refused to discuss whether an anti-Semitic comment may have played a role in the matter.

Cantor landed in hot water this month for giving $25,000 to the Campaign for Primary Accountability to help sink veteran Rep. Don Manzullo (Ill.) in his GOP primary against freshman Rep. Adam Kinzinger (Ill.). The two ended up in the same district after redistricting.

Cantor said he donated at the request of Rep. Aaron Schock (R-Ill.), who, like Cantor, already signaled support for Kinzinger in the race. But Cantor's move ruffled feathers among House Republicans, who said their party leader should have stayed out of a race between two of his own members.

"One dollar from 200,000 people; that's just what I need," Miller said.
